> Like the author, I too think Django's default directory structure doesn't work very well once you start doing bigger projects. But luckily, everything is so loosely coupled that you can change the directory structure entirely without too much work.

Some of it doesn't even work well for small projects--the first thing I do after ./manage.py startproject is change around settings.py so I can have local settings (namely db stuff) and not have to change things around when I push it to a server.
